“Ryan, from the fish department, took extra care to help me find the things I needed, he made my experience at T&T excellent. Everyone else was just as kind. Thank you.”
“Unfortunately, it’s a quite a distance from where I live but every opportunity I get when in around the area, I make sure to visit. I find they have products that you can’t find in any other stores. Their produce, meat and seafood prices are fair. Fresh fish and not frozen is always available. Staff are polite and friendly. Love this place.”
“Thanks To Chantal the new cashier in training and the lady that was training her Isabel i think was her name. Bought meat there, however the meat was spoiled when I got home the same day to cook it. These ladies took responsibility, checked the meat themselves and apologized for the inconvenience and thou it's not much they offered a $1.44 coupon for the inconvenience. Just abit of customer services like that and taking responsibility goes a far way.”
“Small Caribbean store with very friendly chatty owner (Captain Sunshine ). I wish the selection of fresh fruits and fresher vegetables were available but I know sourcing it can be hard unless you arein Toronto. Did buy a nice Dutch pot and some Jamaican sweet treats. Will be back here again for sure”
“My wife and I have been going to Food Village for over 20 yrs., Naquib, Kadijah and Shafique are simply the best and so are their sons, especially the youngest, true blessings to have them in the neighborhood. The meat department never disappoints.”
“This place is incredible with amazing service!, this place offered best service and speed to do pick ups with western union but the best part was the service and how they make you feel heard.”
“Family fun Arabic grocery store with halal meat.
The owners are fantastic; very engaged and knowledgeable. They are kind and will answer all of your questions.
The butchery has fresh meat and they can make to order. There are ready made meals, dips and bakery items- both savoury and sweet.
There is a wide variety of Arabic and south Asian food products, spices and canned items.”
“The cakes here are absolutely amazing the icing is so good! It is our go to for cakes and cupcakes! They also have a good variety of ready meals, salads etc. clean store and polite staff !”

Thanks to the owners and all the awesome people that work here. :-)

“This review is long overdue. I have shopped here for years. I worked in the Glebe in 2015 and again in 2022 through 2024. This is one of the nicest grocery stores in the city. The selection is excellent for the size of store and they have some specialty products I rarely see. Kira checked me out and expertly packed my bags, as I had the pleasure of shopping today! I was able to get the Guinness for my Irish stew too! Ran into Ian, such a terrific manager, and was assisted by Don who helped me take my groceries out down a very slushy sidewalk and waited until my Uber arrived. He helped load up and saw me safely on my way home. I really can't say enough about the service way more then 5. I would give them 100 stars. Thank you!”
“Good — recommend, but with small reservations
My to go quick grocery store for 7 years, good selection, Clean, great customer service, Points system (Scene cards) for fidelity and many contest for prices(seasonal). Price of goods are much higher that comes with more services like pack boy services and quality of good and services.”
“Great variety of grocery items at a really good price. The meat section maintains all the food safety and hygiene protocols for which I always prefer to purchase my meats from MF Foodmart. They are also accommodating to special requests and takes order over phone if needed. Great staff, helpful and courteous.”
“We found this place through a random Google search when we were looking for some Filipino items. We were making Kare Kare (peanut stew) and badly needed Bagoong (shrimp paste) and these guys had it!! It's a nice little store and the workers here are super nice. If you need some Filipino items, this store can be your lifeline!”
“Always well stocked, clean. Produce most and fish and good quality and vast selection. They offer paper bags if you forget tour reusable ones and they have packers to pack your groceries so you don't have to. My favorite grocery store in my neighborhood”
“I like this Metro. They carry some products that are surprisingly hard to find elsewhere, including an ice cream made without additives, which I really appreciate. I also like their ready-to-eat section, with sandwiches and other convenient lunch options. Their fresh produce section is well maintained and offers a good selection of fruits and vegetables. Overall, it's a good grocery store where I can usually find what I'm looking for.”
“They carry tastee patties ?, frozen and ready to eat. Also their selection of spices, king fish, goat etccc, also actually ready to fry plantains is consistant.”

“BLACKBURN HAMLET ON This is my Metro of choice because of distance, friendly staff , meat dept and choices. some improvement in cleaniness of the outside of the Plaza, as of Fall2025. Thank you as great cashiers; cheerful and helpful. Store owner should consider providing paper bags (for fee) for those who forget their shopping bag, they are more sustainable than plastic. thank you!”
“The staff have always been friendly and polite. The products are usually decently stocked and relatively fresh. Overall, it has frequently been a good experience.”
“Not the same owners, it is not Plante's family anymore and it shows! 👌
Good service and the management was quick to help me with an issue.👍
Thank you Grenier-Fortin! 🎉”
“The products are fresh depending on the time of day. I suggest you don't go after 7:00 p.m. because they don't have staff to fill the rows. Overall it's a good grocery store.”
“I love this IGA it’s the best one in all of the Outaouais region, Gatineau and hull and Aylmer, the food is ultra fresh and crisp and let’s not forget the quality is as prime as can be. They get first pick from suppliers , Farmers alike so we can reap all the benefits and as we all know Canadians don’t eat out like most other countries like the united states of America where eating out is customary and a daily thing for them so in comparison for us Canadians we want our food and produce to be ultra fresh for all thoses fabulous recipes we love to make. And make daily and on average 2 to 3 times daily. Oh and one last thing before I run out of space .They have all the update high tech recycling pods (machines) that accept all the types of containers, bottles, cans , plastic storage food containers of all shapes and sizes like plastic milk jugs for 2$ each , cans 10c to 25c, water bottles 10c to 1.50 and so on. Theses prices all came into affect in late 2023- early 2024 if I’m correct but yes they accept any containers the better the quality the container is the more money you’ll get and or also prices varies as well from size to size. There’s a website you can go look and find all you water bottle brand names sizes and prices along with all other types of containers and prizes will surprise you just like I was the and still do when I see what people who don’t know about this throw out on a daily basis it’s money and money adds up. If your not comfortable turning them in , don’t give up then do like my aunt does she gives them to her great grandchildren! They love them. It’s fun for them to do and especially when they are don’t and the cash in ticket reads 30-40 50 dollars. And when you think about what the alternative would have been.
Go to consignment it’s an app you can download and also the machines have the contact information on them and offer the booklets to bring home with you and or call them directly for help.”

“This is a full grocery store with both fresh and packaged items. That includes fresh produce; staples such as rice, pasta, and beans; a full selection of meat and fish; snack items; dessert items; and even novelty items such as toys and gifts. There were some items we were not able to find but made a suggestion/request to stock. The aisles are wide and can accommodate several shoppers at once. The checkout process was quick and convenient.”
